please bookmark this page before beginning the test because you will need to close your browser between certain test steps.

it has 3 directories:

/css

/public

/secret - (protected directory)

the user details for the test are:

user name = bob.example.com

password = password

please note that this user account may be currently locked out because a previous visitor has forced a lockout as part of their testing. if this happens, simply return at a later time to try your test again. the account will reactivate automatically.

each box to the right lets you perform a particular test. you may try them in any sequence. the recommended sequence is as follows:

view a public file in the public directory to see that only the specified directory is protected

view a private file without logging in through the gateway to see that this is not possible

a standard browser login box will be displayed and you will be forced back to the home page, even if you use the supplied the correct user name and password. this occurs because you have not yet logged in using the virtual gateway page.

pong.dxmx.com is password protected in the same authentication domain.
if you have already logged in here, when you click the link, you will be
able to view the home page on that server without manually inputting your username and password.
the server and browser will take care of this automatically.
